Chapter 87 - 87: Method
“Three days? That fast?” Madam Liu was surprised. She looked around and saw that even though she was talking to Chu An, the other three were still working.
It was rare for him to be so diligent.
“It’s not that fast. The four of us are already strong, and with the timely materials, we don’t have to waste time. We can just repair it directly. It’s just that it will take some time to put the broken porcelain pieces.”
“Thank you for your hard work. When Ah Heng comes back, I’ll ask him to treat you to a meal.” Seeing their serious attitude, Chu Liushi was naturally happy to befriend them.
“What Old Woman Ye said just now… Don’t mind it. The YMadam Ye and I are sincerely grateful to you.”
“Mother, Third Sister-in-law has already come over to apologize.” Chu Lin finally spoke up. Seeing that his mother was defending Madam Ye, he definitely could not keep quiet.
Chu An was not a petty person. Ye Muyu’s attitude had already calmed him down, and Madam Liu also came over. He was originally worried that they should not accept Ye Muyu’s kind treatment. After all, they were not that thick-skinned.
Now that Madam Liu had come, he felt a little better.
Chu Yongliang naturally did not mind. He had a carefree personality and did not take anything to heart.
On the other hand, Chu Maogen had an honest personality. On the contrary, Old Woman Ye’s words hurt him the most. He had always been brooding over it. Because he was honest and liked to lower his head and not speak, no one noticed.
Whether it was Ye Muyu’s apology or Madam Liu’s words, he did not listen to them. He only had one thought, and that was to not take advantage of Ye Muyu.
Chu Maogen hid his thoughts deeply. Madam Liu did not notice and left after saying a few words.
Inside the house, after Madam Liu left, Old Woman Ye immediately pulled Ye Muyu to sit down and asked impatiently, “Daughter, what’s going on? When I entered the village today, I heard the people in your village say that there were thieves?”
“Yes, mother, not only was there a thief, but that thief also came to my house. If I hadn’t accidentally hit him at that time, I’m afraid Mother wouldn’t be able to see your daughter now.” Ye Muyu told her what happened that day.
Old Madam Ye was shocked and quickly checked her body. “Are you alright?
“It’s too scary. I told you that you should have let Chu Heng come back. The village is not far from the county. Even if he’s studying, he can go to school early in the morning and come back at night.” Old Madam Ye was indeed the leader of sowing discord. From the beginning to the end, she was only worried about her daughter. As for her son-in-law… Oh, she did not care.
“Mother, my husband is going to take the exam this year and there are only three months left.” Ye Muyu immediately dismissed her idea.
“But…” Old Madam Ye was still unwilling.
“Mother, do you want my husband to fail?” Ye Muyu asked. Do you want my husband to fail because of me? In the future, my life would be even more difficult too. If my husband resents me, our marriage might be ruined too.”
“Is it that serious?” Old Woman Ye was not very knowledgeable, so she only knew some rough theories of the countryside. She had not experienced many things and would not think in that direction.
Ye Muyu patted her hand lightly and gave an example, “Mother, if you buy eggs, and I smashed your eggs behind your back, will you be happy?
“I’ll be furious. Eggs are such a good thing. It’s a pity to smash them. It’s already a luxury for your nieces and nephews to eat an egg every day..”
